Peanut

I will be free!We found out that the tiny little dog in the yard behind us is named Peanut. We found this out when our neighbor pushed his face up against the new hole in our fence and shouted, "Peanut! Get back over here!"

Peanut wasn't in a "get back over here" mood, though. He was dropping off some recyclables and exploring the brave new frontier. There's a gap under our fence toward the front, so Peanut cut anchor and headed toward the light. Tasting sweet freedom, Peanut quickly became an ever-shrinking shape on the horizon. Meanwhile, his owner's smooshed-up face shouted, "Please, go get my dog!"

Yeah, I went there. Sorry.Peanut was eventually chased back into our yard, and then into Neighbor Guy's yard. But Neighbor Guy has some bigger dogs, too. One of them had decided to try out the new executive washroom for himself. Some of the new attractions were as big as Peanut.

Neighbor Guy may have some vandalistic canines, but he's also got power tools. He quickly fixed the fence for us. I hope he didn't get too many splinters in his face.
